That's why we love them RME drivers!DevonB wrote:As I recall, the RME card did even better at lower latency with little to no effect on CPU load.
I've just thrown a Titanium HD on the test bench and run the RTL util over it. As expected, not quite as advertised I'm afraid as from what I can tell they are double buffering the signal so the's lot of lag going on there.
Buffer Size --- RTL (ms)
128 / 2.9ms --- RTL score 15.873 ms
96 / 2.2ms --- RTL score 14.422 ms
64 / 1.5ms --- RTL score 12.993 ms
As a benchmark we consider somewhere around 15ms as usable for a guitarist recording and monitoring through an interface. For a drummer it's more like 8ms - 10ms being ideal and upto around 12ms being just around bareable making the Titanium a poor choice for that sort of work. A Focusrite Scarlet for a £100 would be a far better choice if you need a good ASIO setup.
